Cheap Books at Dry Goods Stores.

Walking along with =. r. Pelton,
the publisherof the Eclectic Magazine,
and the agent Of Lippiqacott's, I in.
quired of him how it was that dry
goods stores could sell books SO much
below regular rates, as I noticed in one
store Grants Memoirs were marked
at $2. az 9 volume, and Chambers En-
cyclop@dia" and other books for little
over one-half the advertised retail
price. Mr.. Pelton explained this by
saying that these big dry goods stores
as = rule did not invest any money in
books. They sold them on commission,
often small enough tolonly cover the
expense. Publishers and booksellers
in this way worked off surplus stock,
or as they did not have to handle the
goods they could afford to take very
very small profit. Mr.. Pelton said
that this had seriously injured the re-
tail book. business, which was now
transacted on five and ten per cent.

The venerable Emperor Will Liam is a
noble type Of royalty. It's wonderful
to think that in the yet sturdy old ruler
Of Germany monarch is still reigning
who became an officer Of the Prussian
army eighty years ago; who took part
in, and still well remembers, the battle
of Waterloo (1815), and who has seen
all the great events Of this eventfu1
nineteenth century, now SO near its
close, pass in dramatic succession be-
fore his eyes. The Emperor William
has always shown . high, naughty,
despotic nature. He is perhaps the.
only remaining sovereign in Europe
except his granddaughter, the Russian
Czar-who devoutly believes that he
has . divine right to rule, and who
clings TO the, old despotic idea Of
kingship. which prevailed in the
middle ages. Yet he has never
been 9 scapricious tyrant. He has
shown an ardent loveIof his people and
his country; has been ambitious to
ma e Germany great, strong, and pros
porous; and has sincerely tried to be
kindly as well as strict ruler over his
subjects. Like almost all Of his stall
wart race William: has always had
fondness for military affairs. The
greater part of his life, indeed, was
spent in active service in the Prussian
army. He had a taste Of war very
early in Life, in the Napoleonic cam
paigns; and has always been regarded
since as one of the best trained soldiers
~ Europe At the age Of ninety, the
wonderful physical powers which have
suffered the wear and tear 1of an I'M
usually busy and laborious life seem
almost un diminished. The veteran
Emperor ID still seen daily by his poo
pie, standing erect and soldierly at the
window of his palace; and we often
hear Of his appearing, mounted on his
white horse, at the great military re-
views which are frequently held inS the
neighborhood Of his capital. More
than one attempt has been made by
wild fanatics on the Emperor's life.
( Yet thereFis no doubt that his intelli-
gent and thoughtful subjects regard
him, not only with the deepest reyer-
ence, but with the fondest affection.

JNo. a. CRAWFORD,

The Rev 3. w. Lawbon, pf New
Richmond, md. relates the Indianap-
oils Journal, while on his way to an
appointment at jamestown, purchased
some soap and placed il il \ sleigh
owned BY George Delhi, who war tos
deliver the soap 1t the ministers
house. Afterward Delhi met a man
named Howard Dewey they exchanged
horses, and Delhi went home in
Dewey's buggy, while Dewey went 70
see q girl 1t the residence Of George
SAKE, with the soap under the seat,
not knowing It was il the sleigh. a
COW of SAKE ate the soap, and died, Of
course. An examination was held and
soap was found in the cows stomach.
Mr.. SAKE has sued all three of the
above persons, So as to be sure Of get
ting damages from somebody. The
COW belonged to SAKE. the soap to-
Lawbon, the sleigh containing the soap.
to Delhi, the horse hitched to the
sleigh. to Dewey, and Dewey was the
person who went to see the girl Of the
man whose COW ate the soap. If the
man had included the young lady whom
Dewey went to see as q party to the
suit, then it might be easier to tell
whom damages could be recovered
from, for surely the girl had as much
to do with the death Of the COW as some
Of the other parties.

CLARENDON, TEX, Aug. l. Yesterday
about noon, at the headquarters of Bug
bee & Coleman, ranchmen, in Hall coun-
ty, about thirty miles south Of here, while
John B. Pope, foreman, Was sitting in his
room, Jake Jones, 8 former cowboy on
the ranch, came in with a pistol in his
hand and began cursing Pope, telling
him to arm himself, that he was going to
shoot Pope right between the eyes. Pope
replied calmly that he had no desire to
shoot Jones and that, besides, he was IN
armed. "Well, FL get you guD," said
Jones excitedly, rushing out CT the door
As he went out OF one door Pope went
out Of the other, and, finding Win.
chester, they met in the yard, and began
blazing away, Jones now having two re-
volveTs. At the first fire Jones neck was
graZed, and be Jumped behind the house
and began firing from that advantage,
| Pope advancing on him, firing IS be came
Jones finally broke and ran in the house
which ended the duel. Result: nobody
killed, Jones' neck and shoulder grazed
and Pope losing a small piece of his shirt
and skin from his left side. Considering
the nearness OF the parties, the marks
maDship was very discreditable. Jones
wss arrested and brought before Justice
Jefferson to-day for assault with inten
10 kill, but the examination was post
poped as an investigation is to be made
as to Jones' sanity, it having long beer
the belief that his mind was injured b.
the breaking of his skull when thrown
from horse shout year ago.

To the Editor Of the Gazette:

destroyed Haskell City. This is, l an
happy to state, G grand mistake.
In the absence Of We scribe on said &C

character We're lifted from their fouDda-
ton and somewhat Injured.
No one was hurt. This was the only
damage done that have heard OF. The

prOspectors and home-seGkars from other

Haskell is the prettlest country and tines'

Ii certainly correct. The writer has beer
over many counties in this part of tins
